I don't think Frank is coming back anytime soon. I may be wrong, I sure as hell don't speak for anyone, and it has been a while since I've spoken with him, but I think it will take some bullying to get him back sooner than later.

I miss the hell out of Matty. And Madaline. I'd like to see Melody and Tony and Phil and Jane and Timeberly posting again. Other that escape my mind as I write this too.

I miss a lot of people. It isn't hard to post here, though, so the people I miss can go fuck themselves.

Same, except I understand why a few of them don't want to.

why? sorry, i'm out of the loop.

i'm kind of like that traveling relative that pops in to eat some of your food after months of being away. i usually smell like dirt and i have a slung backpack of dirty clothes that i really need to wash using your machines.

in exchange, i'd give you a weird bone i found or the piece of wood i whittled down to the shape of a flying dove, because i'm an artist too.

i also buy you different chocolates from wherever i go that i give your kids or an unwrapped pack of gum with 'exotic' flavors like pinacolada or ketchup.

A few years ago, I was dating a guy and spent Christmas with his family, as is customary with people you're sleeping with. At like 11 PM, his uncle surprised everyone by showing up. They were surprised because no one had invited him or had his phone number or any way to contact him for over a year. I had a nice conversation with him. He said he was an English teacher and had spent most of the last few months in Rome. He then gave me wrapped leather bookmark and pen set. How did he know his nephew's girlfriend he'd never met would be there and would be 100% into that kind of lame dork shit? Or what happened to the original intended recipient of this gift? I don't know. Don't care. I have a fancy bookmark.

Anyway, I miss you when you're not here and I'd take all your bones, bird shaped sticks, and pinacolada gum.
